Mac Loader
The Mac Loader is designed from the ground up to fit neatly into your existing Mac. Included as part of the ZooFoo service.
1. Loading from iPhoto, a camera, or the Mac OS
The ZooFoo Mac Loader is designed to tightly integrate with iPhoto you can import albums quickly from iPhoto, or choose to load them from a camera or directly from your file system.
2. Drag to the Tray
You can drag photos to the Z icon on your Mac Tray and it will add them to the Loader quickly. A simple but useful feature.
3. Self healing
What happens if you computer goes to sleep in the middle of a large photo upload? Our Photo Loader has several layers of technology that look for these scenarios and prevent them, or automatically "heal" your account if they occur. If your Mac goes to sleep or is shut down, the ZooFoo Photo Loader records what has been successfully uploaded, and when your Mac restarts, it picks up where it left off.
4. Compression & resizing
On the fly, our Photo Loader intelligently compresses or resizes your photos to one of three sizes, or leaves them in their original state. This saves you transfer time and storage space.
5. Changing the web account
Away from home? You can use another ZooFoo Photo Loader, point it at your account, and upload your photos to your account. During holidays or visits with family, you no longer have to utter those words "Can you send me those photos?"
6. Undo/Redo
Undo/redo allows you to back up if you made an editing mistake. A critical feature when you are working on more than just a few photos.
7. Simplicity
Intentionally, you see little other than a working canvas when you use the Mac Loader. Most of the functionality is "below the hood," and we give you all of the screen real estate as a place to view and manage your photos.
8. Super fast install times and updates
Our Mac Loader installs in 5 to 10 seconds, and updates occur in fewer than 5 seconds. To put this in perspective, it installs over 130 times faster than Kodak Easyshare!

A few other photo loading features that exist elsewhere, that we've tried to improve:
1. Keyboard editing
Our Photo Loader includes keyboard shortcuts that make editing or deleting photos fast. Just tap the delete key in Enlarge mode, for example, and that photo is gone, and the next one is displayed.
2. Plug-in camera support
Plug in your camera and our Photo Loader will grab your files automatically. That's all you have to do.
3. File types
We support .jpeg, .jpg, .gif, .bmp, .png, .tif, and .tiff photos.
4. Photo metadata
The Photo Loader intelligently grabs photo names, exposure date, and tags from your Mac, when the data is available, and sends it to your web account with your photo.
